BREAKING: Poll watching organization breaks 35+ year precedent put in place to prevent the media from influencing the election turn out.

In 1980 Reagan’s victory was declared by NBC at roughly 8:00 p.m. on the east coast. Only 20,000 votes had been determined by the network and the west coast had only just gotten out of work and begun heading to the polls en masse, but they did it anyway.

In the aftermath, there was significant evidence that announcing the victory early had an impact on the turnout. While this isn’t to say that Reagan would have lost, it is to say that it certainly didn’t hurt him.

As a result, the media organizations vowed to not release any information on a state prior to it’s complete and official poll closure.

The 20,000 votes were recorded via exit polling — a process where pollsters conduct interviews with those leaving the voting venue. This is something you’ll need to keep in mind in just one minute.

These were voters that told the pollsters whom they had voted for.

Now, there’s an organization called VoteCastr that is currently breaking this voluntary safeguard and purposefully injecting bias into the narrative. There’s just one really big problem — they aren’t collecting exit poll data.

They’re just taking a head count.

In other words, folks — it’s all theater. There’s no transparency to the process. They claim to use proprietary polls to supplement their turnout analysis but they don’t share this info with us. It might as well be spit-balled.

But it gets a bit worse still:

Earlier this morning I began tweeting about how VoteCastr was concerning to me:

Eventually, I was contacted by one of the pollsters working for organization:

The employee was kind enough to show me the App infrastructure used by VoteCastr:

And when I posted that, that’s when they sent their dog after me. Meet Trevor Cornwell:
